Brown Asafoetida or Yellow Asafoetida Powder

People sometimes say to me:

“I frequently get confused when a recipe calls for a small piece of brown asafoetida and some of my other recipes refer to it as yellow asafoetida powder. Is there a difference, what I should be looking for?”

and my answer is:

The former is a resin extracted from one of a few species of a giant fennel. It is available in four main forms; tears, block, pieces and powder. The tears, blocks and pieces range in colour from red to dark brown and are the strongest in flavour. The powdered version is generally mixed with edible starch and is available in yellow and brown colours, yellow being the milder version of the two due to wheat and turmeric added in.
